Profile:
De Alwis had a constant tussle with Amal Silva to maintain the
number one guernsey as Sri Lankan wicket-keeper. Quite tall, De
Alwis was considered the superior keeper, though Silva held the
upper hand in the batting stakes by quite a stretch. Mahes
Goonatilleke's 'defection' allowed de Alwis to make his debut on
the tour of New Zealand. One of seven debutants in the first Test
at Christchurch de Alwis scored 0 and 3 and took one catch. Amal
Silva was preferred in the next, though De Alwis kept in all
three Tests when the Kiwis toured Sri Lanka. De Alwis' keeping
was exemplary and while he made some handy scores in the lower
order he could not convert them further. Injury on the 1984 tour
of England cost him his place, the old adage of never giving a
sucker an even break applied as Silva had a tremendous Test at
Lords. Silva's continued good form kept de Alwis on the sidelines
until Silva fell ill allowing de Alwis to return. In his further
Tests de Alwis kept tidily but his batting was below standard.
Conversely in the one day format de Alwis was quite a useful
batsman in the lower order.
